There is a Gap in the MarketPeople want fresh food where they spend most of their time—
But food providers lack the technology to serve them
Impossible. Physical constraints are ill suited for fresh food
Empty.No real-time data and analytics means that shelves are left emptyBad for business and a terrible user experience for hungry people
Vending Machines Do Not Work For Fresh Food
Expired. Without real-time inventory visibility, good food goes bad

Pantry is Built for Fresh Food
Beauty. A simple, delightful customer experience – that’s nothing like a vending machine
Brains. RFID labels allow real-time visibility into who is buying what and when

Item Level Tracking forReal‐Time Data
Forecasting. Analytics empower food providers to optimize restocking, identify trends, and ensure freshness
Reporting. Up-to-the-minute sales and inventory data available directly to the food provider
